I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Milán) in Feb 2018
Interview
I went through a very structured process:
- a first phone interview to understand my motivation for the position (after, I was asked to take the SHL test before the next interview)
- three interviews in a row with a recruiter, an Area Manager and an Operations Manager to test me on Amazon's leadership principles
- a phone interview with a Senior Manager to get to know myself and to answer to all my questions about the job
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All kinds of questions that imply Amazon's leadership principles (like "describe one episode explaining how did you behave with a customer") using the STAR approach (Situation, Target, Action, Results)
Star Method and Leadership Principles. Just study these from the materials they give you, and form a story for each principle, and when they ask questions, you can see which principle they are asking about.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you faced a conflict or disagreement at work and how did you handle it?"
Multiple online tests after application, followed by a virtual interview with various staff. Staff did not want to be on camera and did not have many good things to say about working there.
Prior to even speaking to anyone about a possible interview there was a long and lengthy testing required. Really disappointing to finish with no feedback or additional details. I only received an email post test.
